Okay, we'll follow the rule: if even one reasonable person likes it, it's not trash. I'll remove it. Although I probably won't bother reading it myself.
As for The Lord of the Rings, it certainly has a well-developed world. For a "first attempt," it's very, very good. But the Order and Chaos universe created by Roger Zelazny, in my opinion, far surpasses the world created by the professor. Although I'm not making a completely fair comparison – Tolkien created one world, while Zelazny created an entire fantasy universe. If you take just one world from Zelazny (for example, Amber or Avalon), it falls far short of Tolkien's Middle-earth.
But in terms of sheer scale and detail, science fiction leaves fantasy far behind. Which fantasy cycle can compete with Frank Herbert's Dune or Star Wars in terms of the size and depth of the universe? None, in my opinion. I can't think of any right away.
